Every single day children are hurt without anybody ever seeing the signs. Some hide their pain behind compliancy and silence. Many never get the help they need.
Non-verbal forms of communication can save lives. Together, we can empower, inform, protect and support. Let’s create little lionhearts.

​

Written and illustrated by Melanie herself, this book develops and strengthens the idea of nonverbal communication in empowering and protecting children from abuse, for when words seem impossible.

 

Driven and determined, Melanie actively uses everything at her disposal to alter perceptions, to bring about tangible change, and to assist healing.

She will never again mute her voice for those who gain from her silence. Instead, she wears her fear and vulnerability like a glorious war paint, stepping firmly into the uncomfortable to do what needs to be done.
